The last ever Type 42 in Royal Naval service returned to Portsmouth today flying the paying off pennant. HMS Defender one of the newest Type 45's escorted her in, Edinburgh fired her saluting gun as she entered the harbour and a Sea Fury flew over head.......

She was in Cammell Lairds last weekend for the Battle of the Atlantic celebrations. Thats fitting as its where she was built.
